Abstract Background A dysregulated immune response is emerging as a key feature of critical illness in COVID-19. Neutrophils are components early innate immunity that, if not tightly regulated, contribute to uncontrolled systemic inflammation. We sought decipher the role neutrophil phenotypes, functions, and homeostasis COVID-19 disease severity outcome. Methods By using flow cytometry, this longitudinal study compares peripheral whole-blood neutrophils from 90 ICU patients with those 22 SARS-CoV-2-negative hospitalized for severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) 38 healthy controls. also assessed correlations between these phenotypic functional indicators markers endothelial damage well severity.

Abstract The field of bioelectronic medicine has advanced rapidly from rudimentary electrical therapies to cutting-edge closed-loop systems that integrate real-time physiological monitoring with adaptive neuromodulation. Early innovations, such as cardiac pacemakers and deep brain stimulation, paved the way for these sophisticated technologies. This review traces historical technological progression medicine, culminating in emerging potential devices multiple disorders body. We emphasize both invasive techniques, implantable brain, spinal cord autonomic regulation, while we introduce new prospects non-invasive neuromodulation, including focused ultrasound newly developed neurography enabling precise detection titration inflammatory immune responses. case neuromodulation (incorporating splenic stimulation) is presented through its applications conditions sepsis chronic inflammation, illustrating capacity revolutionize personalized healthcare. Today, or have yet be dynamically modulate nervous system function by responding molecular signals; it represents a transformative approach therapeutic interventions major opportunity which may advance. Knowledge gaps remain likely contribute lack available closed loop systems, namely, (1) significant exogenous endogenous noise must filtered out, (2) drift signal due temporal change disease severity and/or therapy induced neuroplasticity, (3) confounding effects (e.g., concurrent medications dysregulate functions). Leveraging continuous feedback adjustments overcome many barriers, next generation stand at forefront precision offering avenues individualized treatment.

Whilst the majority of individuals infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), causative pathogen COVID-19, experience mild to moderate symptoms, approximately 20% develop complications that may progress distress syndrome, pulmonary failure and death. To date, single cell high-throughput systems based analyses peripheral immune responses SARS-CoV-2 suggest a hyperactive dysregulated response underpins development disease, prominent role assigned neutrophils.

Individuals suffering from severe viral respiratory tract infections have recently emerged as "at risk" groups for developing invasive fungal infections. Influenza virus is one of the most common causes acute lower worldwide. Fungal complicating influenza pneumonia are associated with increased disease severity and mortality, pulmonary aspergillosis being manifestation. Strikingly, similar observations been made during current coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The copathogenesis coinfections complex involves a dynamic interplay between host immune defenses virulence microbes involved that often results in failure to return homeostasis. In this review, we discuss main mechanisms underlying susceptibility following A comprehensive understanding these interactions will aid development therapeutic modalities against newly identified targets prevent treat emerging coinfections.

Under physiological conditions, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in the bone marrow niches are responsible for highly regulated interconnected hematopoiesis process. At same time, they must recognize potential threats respond promptly to protect host. A wide spectrum of microbial agents/products consequences infection-induced mediators (e.g. cytokines, chemokines, growth factors) can have prominent impact on HSPCs. While COVID-19 starts as a respiratory tract infection, it is considered systemic disease which profoundly alters system. Lymphopenia, neutrophilia, thrombocytopenia, stress erythropoiesis hallmark SARS-CoV-2 infection. Moreover, thrombocytopenia blood hypercoagulability common among patients with severe disease. Notably, invasion erythroid precursors progenitors by cardinal feature may part explain mechanism underlying hypoxia.

Natural killer (NK) cells are innate immune that contribute to host defense against virus infections. NK respond severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in vitro and activated patients with disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, by which mechanisms detect SARS-CoV-2-infected remains largely unknown. Here, we show the Non-structural protein 13 of SARS-CoV-2 encodes for a peptide is presented human leukocyte antigen E (HLA-E). In contrast self-peptides, viral prevents binding HLA-E inhibitory receptor NKG2A, thereby rendering target susceptible cell attack. line these observations, NKG2A-expressing particularly COVID-19 proficiently limit replication infected lung epithelial vitro. Thus, data suggest abrogates inhibition NKG2A+ cells, resulting missing self-recognition.
